    Cadillac margarita
    Rhett R.

    We were in Chicago for a wedding, and the rehearsal dinner was at La Catrina. Being from California -- where Mexican food is a staple -- and Hispanic myself, I'll admit my expectations weren't too high for a Mexican restaurant in Chicago. But I was pleasantly surprised! The dinner was a buffet with beef and chicken fajitas, all the fixings, plus rice and beans. The food had good flavor (just needed a touch more salt), and the rice and beans were solid. For me, refried beans are the ultimate test of a good Mexican spot -- if you can make killer beans, the rest usually follows. Now, the margaritas stole the show -- huge, refreshing, and absolutely delicious. Highly recommend grabbing a drink here! Their salsa also had a nice punch of cilantro, just how I like it. Overall, La Catrina was pretty decent -- flavorful food, great drinks, and a fun spot to gather and celebrate.

    Sizzling steak fajitas, good quality and quantity.

    Great experience from start to finish. Food was literally sizzling as it was brought to me! People were friendly. Chips were good. Salsa was just right with a little bite. The margaritas put a smile on my face

    Love the atmosphere and service and the fact that they have good fajitas. Didn't like my vegetarian tamales.

    Everything was great. Bartender/ Server was awesome. I'd definitely come back for another visit. I was also nosey and peeped at the other food being served around me, everything looked and smelled amazing. I have a few things I want to try the next few times I come back to visit. I sat at the bar but there is also a dining section. I do wish they had some lunch or drink specials during the week, such as happy hour.

    This restaurant is a great addition to places to dine on 111th street. The meals are excellent, with a variety of choices. I most enjoy the friendly welcome and attentive service. It's a relaxing atmosphere! Street parking is always available

    Great Margaritas!

    First time visiting this hidden gem. Walked in at 7PM on a Friday night, and though it was crowded, we got seated within minutes. The service was great. The waiters are very attentive. The food was good, but the Margaritas were even better. I would definitely visit La Catrina again.

    Superb Customer Service From Our Server Ulises And Compliments To The Chef As Everything Was Made To Order. Strongly recommended!!!

    Food is excellent. Service is good. Every now and then they throw a free shot of tequila in.

    Neighborhood bar with great vibes. They have strong community connections. Everyone knows everyone…read morehere.

    I went to the endzone after a long day with my boyfriend, we met my sister and her boy friend…read morethere. The night started off okay and we were having an okay time. We kept getting our conversation interrupted by the bar tender whose name was Val. We were talking about old navy and she interrupted our convo and started being fatphobic about the sizes they offered "why do they have so many sizes, it's wild, who even wears that size" and when my by chimed in about how inclusive they are and how some people need it and, she started putting her foot in her mouth and tripping over her words, strike one. My boy friend then stated to talk to another patron in he bar and she kept interrupting their conversation and making it about her and her bf, but the thing is no one was talking to her once again, the patron ended up leaving after the 3rd interruption, strike 2. This final strike caused us to leave the bar and we won't ever be coming back. We were once again having a conversation, without her and she come up to us and loudly called us "Ladies" in front of everyone, this is after I had already introduced him as my boyfriend. He corrected her and I also corrected her and she just stood there with a stupid blank expression over her face like she didn't hear what we said. She then tried to give a half ass apology about her being drunk/tipsy and she didn't mean any harm by it, but the damage was done. She was obviously off of some drug or something because she couldn't sit still and she kept twitching. She never apologized and we left right after. After being a patron of this bar for over 2 years, I expected more respect or just common decency. It is soooooo unsafe and dangerous to be so unaware, especially with the political landscape of the city being what it is. She is able to go on with her life and it's not a good look for the bar and I will not be returning and telling my friends to also not return to the bar. Her behavior was beyond unacceptable and not be returning.

    My bestie and I came here for lunch Thursday afternoon, not too many people (but it was also 2pm)…read moreatmosphere was warming, awesome decor, they had football on tv, music was decent, waitress/bartender was AWESOME (shoutout Marisol) she took our order pretty quick, was friendly and welcoming. We got our appetizer, food and drinks quick. Everything was 10/10!!! Highly recommend Americanos . As far as time of day in my opinion according to my schedule that time of day would be best time to go if u want easy going vibe without the hustle and bustle

    Saturday night and the restaurant was less than half full. That should have been our first warning…read more They were out of two of the things we ordered but we were only told after the fact; the waiter wasn't knowledgeable of what was available on the menu. Then they brought half our table's food about 20 minutes before the rest. The worst part was when the waiter was rude to my son. My son, who is 7 years old and has special needs, was getting out of the booth to let his cousin out so he could go to the bathroom and suddenly the waiter came up to drop off the second half of food. I'm not sure why the waiter didn't go to the other side of the table where everyone was sitting rather than the side where three people were getting up, but my son accidentally bumped into the waiter. The waiter rudely said "don't touch me!". I stood up to move my son away from him and then helped the waiter distribute the plates. The waiter said he could do it but that was seemingly not true because not only was he rude but he tried to give us plates of food we already had received 20 minutes earlier. I told him we already had those orders and he was very confused. Really a terrible experience.
